Who would be the best player in the NBA...

Curry has no where near the handles of Kyrie. Not even in the same galaxy.

You don’t even know what you are arguing.

But call me shocked you would pick the player you like over the player who beat you in the Finals 3 times. Even though you don’t have any logic on your side.

The only skill Kyrie has over Curry is ball handling and finishing at the rim. And yes, it is close. Curry is a world class ball handler. Curry is better at everything else, and in some cases by a lot more than Kyrie is better than Curry at these 2 things.

Matthew Dellabadoober and it’s not really even close

Prime Charles Barkley.

If he he did what he did against guys that were always 5-6 inches taller than him, just imagine what he would do if they were all the same size.

He was also a freakish athlete though

Not the best, but elite. With his ball handling he could get to the rim whenever, and you have to figure his finishing at the rim goes up. He would be the best passer, be a top of the line defender, and be one of the higher iq players out there.

So essentially Rondo?

In his prime, Rondo was elite at all 3...maybe not the best dribbler but still top

Kyrie is the best ball handler in the league...I think Wall is right there too, when he was on the court lol

Rondo was also faster than most. That was how was able to get to the rim.

And in this scenario everybody is just as fast.

I keep saying this, but it favors the less athletic guys who won on their skill set. Rondo has a decent skill set, but his speed and athleticism was the primary reason he was a top PG IMO.

Yes. That is true.

But there is a greater difference between their shooting ability than their ball handling.

Curry is really dynamic there too.
